sounds like heaven

For most of life, nothing wonderful happens. If you don’t enjoy getting up and working and finishing your work and sitting down to a meal with family or friends, then the chances are that you’re not going to be very happy. If someone bases his happiness or unhappiness on major events like a great new job, huge amounts of money, a flawlessly happy marriage or a trip to Paris, that person isn’t going to be happy much of the time. If, on the other hand, happiness depends on a good breakfast, flowers in the yard, a drink or a nap, then we are more likely to live with quite a bit of happiness.

Detroit lake! I grew up going here because my grandfather owned a cabin in the near there. Unfortunately, he sold it a few years back after my grandmother passed away. In the winter they let the water out through the damn and an empty lakebed full of tree stumps appears. It is an eery, yet beautiful place to walk around. Your shoes get quite muddy. T’is strange thinking, “I am walking around in what used to be a lake, that used to be a fir-tree forrest.”
